INSTALLATION
Page 7
EN - English
INLET & OUTLET

Check the water pressure at the place of installation of
the multi-purpose water filter; it should never exceed 8,3
bar.

We strongly recommend the use of flexible hoses to
connect the multi-purpose water filter to the water
distribution system; use hoses with a large diameter in order
to limit the pressure loss.

If the water filter is not equipped with the factory bypass
(optional), we strongly recommend to install a 3-valve
bypass system (not included with this product!) to isolate the
water filter from the water distribution system in case of
repairs. It allows to turn off the water to the water filter,
while maintaining (untreated) water supply to the user.
WITH FACTORY BYPASS (optional)


= mains water supply (untreated water)
 = inlet of multi-purpose water filter (untreated water)
 = outlet of multi-purpose water filter (treated water)
 = application/house (treated water)
1.
Screw the factory bypass onto the in/out ports on the
control valve (
 &  ); make sure to install the gasket
seals. Tighten the nuts firmly by hand.
2. Screw the connection kit with nuts onto the factory
bypass (
 &  ); make sure to install the gasket seals.
Tighten the nuts firmly by hand.
3. Connect the mains water supply to the adaptor on the
inlet port of the factory bypass (
 ).
4. Connect the application to the adaptor on the outlet port
of the factory bypass (
 ).
WITH 3-VALVE BYPASS SYSTEM (not included)


= inlet of multi-purpose water filter (untreated water)
 = outlet of multi-purpose water filter (treated water)
1.
Install the 3-valve bypass system.
2. Screw the connection kit with nuts onto the in/out ports
on the control valve (
 &  ); make sure to install the
gasket seals. Tighten the nuts firmly by hand.
3. Connect the 3-valve bypass system to the adaptors on the
in (
 ) and out (  ) port of the control valve.
4. Connect the mains water supply to the inlet of the 3-valve
bypass system.
5. Connect the house/application to the outlet of the 3-valve
bypass system.
DRAIN

We recommend the use of a stand pipe with air trap.

To prevent backflow from the sewerage system into the
multi-purpose water filter, always install and use the
included air gap with double hose barb, to connect the drain
hoses to the sewerage system.

Always use separate drain hoses for the control valve
(evacuation of rinse water) and the brine tank overflow.

Lay-out the drain hoses in such a way that pressure loss
is minimized; avoid kinks and unnecessary elevations.

Make sure that the sewerage system is suitable for the
rinse water flow rate of the multi-purpose water filter.
Picture 4
1. Install the air gap to the sewerage system; it fits over a
32 mm pipe or inside a 40 mm pipe adaptor. Ensure a
permanent and watertight connection.
2. Connect a 13 mm hose to the drain elbow of the control
valve (

); secure it by means of a clamp.
3. Run the drain hose to the air gap and connect it to one of
the hose barbs; secure it by means of a clamp. This drain
line operates under pressure, so it may be installed higher
than the multi-purpose water filter.
4. Connect a 13 mm hose to the overflow elbow on the brine
tank; secure it by means of a clamp.
5. Run the drain hose to the air gap and connect it to the
other hose barb; secure it by means of a clamp. This drain
line does NOT operate under pressure, so it may NOT be
installed higher than the multi-purpose water filter.
ELECTRICAL
Picture 5
1. Plug the transformers output lead into the socket on the
multi-purpose water filters power cord; secure it by
means of the TwistLock clamp.
2. Plug the transformer into an electrical outlet.
